PolishDave Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 TIL as of 2011, there are more barrels of bourbon aging in the state of Kentucky (4.7 million) than there are people who live there (4.3 million). CBF Interesting. No wonder so many people are moving south. Did you know that there are more cows in Wyoming County than there are people? There is something like 53,000 cows and around 41,000 people - and that's not counting the people who should be counted as cows.

Plus, he can put on more muscle mass for his weight class, since he's less one leg's weight.

DC Tom Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 TIL IBM Had To Delete 'Urban Dictionary' Data from The Watson Super Computer System Because The Machine Started Cursing.
